2023 IEEE National Aerospace and Electronics Conference (NAECON) | Aug 28-31, 2023 | Fairborn, OH

Welcome to the 75th Anniversary of the IEEE National Aerospace and Electronics Conference NAECON 2023! Whether this is your first NAECON, or you are a long-time attendee of NAECON, we welcome your full and active participation in this year’s in-person event. In 1948, a then 5-year-old Dayton Section made a bold decision to inaugurate the National Aerospace and Electronics Conference, promoting the technical innovation centered in the Miami Valley and its impact to the region, the US and around the world. Now 75 years later, the spirit of that first NAECON is captured by this year’s theme of “6G, 3D and the Inflection Point for Aerospace Electronics”. The 2023 NAECON agenda includes 15 technical tracks aligned towards Aerospace Electronic Systems (AES), Circuits and Systems (CAS), along with tutorials on Neuromorphic Computing and Microwave Photonics, Special Sessions for Trusted Microelectronics and Microwave Theory and Technology. In addition, a panel session will discuss the CHIPS Act, and our Banquet Keynote speaker will discuss the future of computational architectures as he is honored with the NAECON 2023 Joseph Desch Award.

If you’re unable to attend NAECON in person, please consider the post-NAECON virtual event with the Discovery Lab Summer Students:

  • POST NAECON PRESENTATION VTC
  • 3D Virtual NAECON for Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity
  • Dr. Rob Williams, Discovery Lab Global
  • Thursday August 31, 2023 from 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM (www.discoverylabglobal.com)

Students in the Discovery Lab Global (DLG) summer program will conduct a virtual technical session of their Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Cybersecurity summer projects from inside of DLG’s 3D virtual campus via Zoom. This 2-hour session via Zoom will cover student summer projects in Deep Learning AI, Generative AI, and the development of a ChatGPT cybersecurity avatar tutor. DLG builds on the foundational legacy of the original AFRL Discovery Lab that Dr. Rob Williams led for 10 years before retiring as the founding director to continue it philosophically as the non-profit DLG which is in its 7th year.
